(2018) PG Darius Garland to Vandy

[Stuhoo]

So, let's man up and take it on the chin and move on to the next guy that wants to be a Hoosier.  It's that easy.  We are gonna have so many options going forward.  Not sweating it.  It's unfortunate, but not sweating it.

I just read pretty much the EXACT SAME SENTIMENT tonight on the Vandy 14Powers board.
One of you is wrong!! [emoji2]

“Just received a text from Darius. He has no clue what all this fuss on Twitter is about and he has no way committed yet. Continue to expect a decision around next Monday.” Rabjohns just now on peegs

Let it be me!  I'll gladly be wrong.  I was just speaking in terms if things weren't to go our way.

Per the chat on the other IU site with Rabs, he was able to text DG directly and was told by DG that he HAS NOT committed and doesn't know what anyone on twitter is talking about. Rabs also talked to the family and confirmed they had a sit-down starting on Friday to start vetting schools. Got out a big white poster and wrote pros & cons of each.

Guys it's a white poster. Last time I checked white wasn't one of Vandy's school colors. He's ours.

Can't blame a guy for tryin'!

 

But man, get back to it. You've got important work ahead of you... Stranger Things 2 is good stuff.

I must be too old. I tried watching season 1. After about 5 shows, I quit watching it didn't appeal to me. Now Longmire is a different story.

The vandy commit just deleted the anchor down tweet. Is that good or bad? Lol. Man I’m so ready for this to be over.

Darius telling him take it down (too early) or take it down ( not true)

Honestly he's probably just messing with people knowing lots of fans would read too much into it.  Looking for his 15 seconds of fame I guess.

I’m pretty young and I only watched it for about 5 seconds before I turned it off. Lol Vikings is my show of choice at the moment.

I'm must be old. I'm watching Curb Your Enthusiasm. Lol. Classic comedy writing.

Actually Rabjohns was in Nashville tonight. He met with the family today and is writing an article tomorrow based on their sit down family meeting.

You have to feel better about IU's chances after reading the chat tonight. 

rabs in nashville? That’s bigger than anything I’ve read in a while. 2 visits in as many weeks...

The Vandy scout guy probably paid Darius's buddy to tweet that out and get the Darius to Vandy rumors swirling again. That way he can try to be like Lavar Ball and speak it into existence.

[Yogi's Picnic Basket]

Yeah Rabs was there. He shared that in the chat over there tonight I believe or as a tidbit. Guess they're the same thing. A lot came from it as well. Schilling and Flint are two definite pros that got thrown on the white board. Shared a few other things in some pms but nothing crazy. Still not a done deal, but personally I feel good about our chances.

Why do you feel it'll be IU in the end?

It just occurred to me that some of these recruitments go on longer than the length of time the player attends his chosen school, Lol. 

Both RL and DG are outstanding prospects and I truly believe they will get more out of playing here than the other schools, but part of me would love to see Archie tell each of them "I sincerely hope you'll come and play for us at Indiana University.  You'll be a huge contributor to our success and we'll prepare you for your basketball career.  However, I have a group of 15 young men that have made that decision and going forward my full attention will be focused on working with them to develop our team.  I trust you'll make the right decision and again, joining us in Bloomington would be a mutually beneficial choice.  I look forward to hearing from you soon."
